Daughter of aristocratic family

Chapter 278 Sending off my concubine
The Yun and Fan families had no contact with each other. When Mrs. Fan passed away, Zhao Wangshu did not need to come to express condolences. However, when the old Mrs. Hejian's house passed away, Zhao Wangshu had to go.

It was also at this time that Zhao Wangshu learned that the old lady's surname was Shao, and Yun Hao's grandmother was also surnamed Shao, and they were cousins.

However, Mrs. Yun is a direct descendant, and Mrs. Wang is a concubine.

"When the old lady was alive, Mrs. Wang always wanted to have a relationship, and she also acted under the banner of the Yun family, which caused a lot of trouble for the Yun family. Later, the old lady spoke, and the two families broke off contact." Yun Before the lady asked Zhao Wangshu to express her condolences, she told her some past events.

"So there is such a connection." Zhao Wangshu suddenly realized.

Uncle Hejian's mansion has long been in decline. Only Uncle Hejian has a sixth-grade idle position in the court. His second and third brothers are all white.

The mourning hall was decorated simply and solemnly. Zhao Wangshu followed the etiquette and offered incense in front of the mourning body. He said a word of comfort to the filial sons and virtuous people, "My condolences and acceptance."

Several young ladies of the Wang family invited Zhao Wangshu into the inner room to serve tea.

After a few polite words, Mrs. Wang San came over and said, "I have something to tell Wang Shu. You all should go out."

She called Zhao Wangshu by her maiden name. Not only the young ladies of the Wang family were surprised, but even Zhao Wangshu muttered, are she familiar with Mrs. Wang San?
"Wangshu, don't you remember me? I hugged you when you were a child." Mrs. Wang San said, reaching out to hold Zhao Wangshu's hand.

"Wangshu really doesn't remember what happened when he was a child. I would like to ask the third wife to tell you what relationship you have with my mother's family." Zhao Wangshu held the tea cup and avoided her hand.

"Your grandmother's aunt is my aunt. Speaking of which, I am your cousin and aunt. We are all part of the same family. Please don't meet me outside. Just call me aunt." Mrs. Wang San said.

When she said this, Zhao Wangshu remembered what her grandma had told her not to associate with Mrs. Wang San, and said bluntly: "If the third Mrs. Wang has anything to say, just say it directly. There is no need to involve relatives."

Mrs. Wang San was slightly taken aback. She didn't expect Zhao Wangshu to be so direct, "Wangshu, we are serious relatives, so how can we say such outspoken words."

Zhao Wangshu stood up and said, "It's getting late, so I won't drink tea. I'll take my leave."

"Wang Shu, Wang Shu, don't leave yet. I have something to ask you for help." Mrs. Wang San stopped her quickly.

Zhao Wangshu stopped and frowned, "Third Madam, as a housewife, how can I help you? You have found the wrong person."

"No, you have the wrong person." Mrs. Wang San forced her back onto the chair, "Xiao Zao, come on, I've seen your cousin."

Zhao Wangshu saw a pretty girl wearing mourning clothes come in from the outside, "Xiao Zao has met my cousin. Wish you all the best for my cousin."

"Miss Wang, there is no need to be polite." Zhao Wangshu did not recognize this cousin.

Mrs. Wang San doesn't care whether Zhao Wangshu recognizes her or not, but she recognizes Zhao Wangshu as her cousin's granddaughter. "Wangshu, this is my granddaughter. You are similar in age. You should get closer to her in the future."

Zhao Wangshu did not answer Mrs. Wang San's words, but just glanced at Xiao Zao lightly.

Xiaozao felt a little uncomfortable when she saw him, lowered his head and twisted the handkerchief in his hand.

Mrs. Wang San smiled and said: "Wang Shu, my Xiaozao is quite old, but the marriage has not been settled yet."

"Third Madam, there is a funeral in the house. You think this is not appropriate." Zhao Wangshu said with a hint of sarcasm on his lips. These words made Mrs. Wang San a little embarrassed, but she quickly covered it up and continued: "It is really inappropriate to say this at this time, but Wangshu, please be considerate of me as a grandmother. Xiaozao is my granddaughter, As a grandma, I naturally hope that she will marry into a good family."

"I can understand, but I'm not a matchmaker. I can't help the third wife." Zhao Wangshu stood up and prepared to leave.

"I can help, I can help." Mrs. Wang San stopped her again, "Wang Shu, it's common for this man to have three wives and four concubines. Instead of looking up to outsiders, it's better to let Xiao Zao come into the house to help you."

Zhao Wangshu was shocked. She didn't expect that Mrs. Wang San had this idea, "Third Mrs., you stretched your hand too long."

Not even three months after she married into the Yun family, this old woman was actually thinking of giving Yun Hao a concubine!

"Wang Shu, I am doing this for your own good. Xiaozao is your cousin. She will only help you wholeheartedly and will not compete with you for favor. A wife should be generous. What's more, you are also related to my family. In this way Wouldn't it be a kiss?" Mrs. Wang San smiled so hard that the folds of her face were squeezed together, as if she was completely unaware of how ridiculous and offensive this proposal was.

Zhao Wangshu sneered, her face even colder than before, "Magnificent? Third Madam, you are wrong. I am not a generous person, and I don't bother to share my husband with others. If you really think about Xiaozao, you should Find a well-matched husband for her instead of sending her to be a concubine.”

Mrs. Wang San's face froze, obviously she did not expect Zhao Wangshu to refuse so bluntly, but she still did not give up, "Wangshu, why are you doing this? Xiaozao is young and has a simple mind. She will not pose any threat to you. ”

"She is indeed not a threat, but in my opinion, anyone who wants to steal my husband from me should die." Zhao Wangshu narrowed his eyes slightly, "Concubine, if the third wife wants to give me money, then Give me more women to be my husband’s concubines, and sell one, or two for a pair.”

Mrs. Wang San was stunned by Zhao Wangshu's words. She had never seen such a direct and ruthless woman who was so possessive of her husband.

In her mind, it is normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines, not to mention that Zhao Wangshu's husband is a third-rank official with a high position of power, so it is natural for him to have several concubines around him.

"You...you are too vicious!" Mrs. Wang San was frightened by Zhao Wangshu's determination and ruthlessness.

"Third Madam, when talking about others, think about yourself. You have sold many concubines and maids. I advise you not to mess with me, otherwise, your granddaughter will be kept at home as an old girl." Zhao Wangshu said with a puff of sleeves. go.

Mrs. Wang San stood there, looking at her leaving back, her eyes full of resentment, "Be as virtuous as that grandma of hers."

Xiaozao timidly called out: "Grandma."

"It's okay, grandma will make your wish come true." Mrs. Wang San said.

"Thank you, grandma." Xiao Zao said coquettishly and shyly.

Zhao Wangshu left Uncle Hejian's Mansion, returned home, and asked Mrs. Qiao, "Let me ask about the relationship between a girl named Xiaozao in the third room of Uncle Hejian's Mansion and the young master."

There are so many noble sons in the capital, so Mrs. Wang San would not target Yun Hao for no reason. There must be a reason for this.

"Yes, young mistress." Lady Qiao accepted the order and left.

Luzhi followed her out and told Lady Qiao, "The grandmother of Miss Zao wants to send Miss Zao to the house to be the young master's concubine."

Mrs. Qiao was shocked, "Who is this person? Our girl has just been married and she wants to keep a concubine. I will definitely investigate her thoroughly."

After saying that, he left angrily.
